Hello to all It is my first time that i use a mail list, so, if i'm not doing things the right way please advise. I use Mandriva 2009.0 with Gnome and Evolution. I was a long time user of Kde so in some things i fill a bit "lost". I have tried to create a filter to allow my incoming mail's to be scaned by clamav (clamscan or clamdscan) but with no success. I searched the archives of the list and there are a few posts about this but they are very old and, because of that, i think, i had no success with those tips. I tried to find a solution in the Mandriva forums but they told me that it was not possible unless i created a mail server or switched to kmail. So my question is: Is it possible to scan incoming mail with an antivirus in Evolution? If yes how can i do it? Thank you all for the attention Josà _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list gnome org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
Since I was fooling around with ruby at the time, I setup a filter to
utilize a ruby script with clamav... You could substitute another
language/api in place of ruby.
You probably would also want to comment out the logging functionality,
as it will eat up lots of space over time unless you cron a job to keep
the logdir under control...
rthompso raker ~/bin $ cat rubyclamav.rb
#!/usr/bin/ruby
#
require 'socket'
fp = File.open("/var/log/rubyclamav/rubyoutclam_#{Process.pid}.log",
"a")
START_TIME=Time.now
sendSock = UNIXSocket.open('/var/run/clamav/clamd.sock')
#sendSock = UNIXSocket.open('/var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl')
sendSock.puts("STREAM")
retStr = sendSock.gets
tag, val = retStr.split
sendSock1 = TCPSocket.open('localhost',"#{val}")
#res = $stdin.read
sendSock1.write($stdin.read)
sendSock1.close
retStr = sendSock.gets
pt = Time.now - START_TIME
#puts "#{retStr}"
#fp.write("#{res}\n")
fp.write("#{retStr}\n")
fp.write("ProcessTime = #{pt}\n")
fp.close
if retStr.match("FOUND") then
system("zenity --warning --title=\"Evolution: Virus detected\"
--text=\"#{retStr}\" &")
exit 1
else
exit 0
end
